This merger was forf
lew company and given the
if Meadows Mill company,
today one of North
jro’s outstanding mamtfaenrlng:)
stitutions. Its products are no'vi^
jlng shipped into several for
eign countries and has, of course,
a very large clientele in the
United States. Mr, Finley is
f. hresiilent of this splendid manu
facturing concern.
He is also a director at this
time in the Bank of North Wil-
kesboro and has been since 1933;
a director in the North Wilkes-
boro Building & Loan associa
tion; a director and vice presi
dent of the North Wllkesboro In
surance Agency; a former direc
tor in the Forest Furniture com
pany and is a member of the
Board of Trustees of the Wilkes
Hospital, Inc., and at this time is
chairman of the county board of
commissioners for Wilkes county.
His record as county chairman is
outstanding for the many fine ac
complishments perfected during
his administration. Mr. Finley
was also one of the organizers of
the old Wilkes Commercial club
which in its dsv was one of the
best commercial organizations in
the western part of North Caro
lina. He also had the pleasure of
serving on the City board of com
missioners.
It can truly he said that Mr.
Finley has proven himself to be
an illustrious son of an illustrious
sire, who did so much for North
Wllkesboro and Wilkes county.
He ig considered one of, if not the
best, young business men in the
city and county and his keen
sense of Justice and faplghted-
ness makes him a valuable mem
ber of the board of directors of
the several institutions he rep
resents. The North Wllkesboro
Building & Loan association is to
be congratulated in having as one
of its directors a man of Mr. Fin
ley’s ability. Mr. Finley is a mem
ber of the Presbyterian church, a .
lover of home and community and
can always be found readv and
willing to sponsor not only with
his time but with his means, any
worthy project in promoting and
building for the future a better
town and county.
Since the hrrse went out of
business he seems to have taken
his “horse sense’’ with him.
